 (22nd) New plan for divider or movable partitions. Nail 3/16 inch strips between
� inch Double clamping pieces, as in [illegible], guides, nailed clinching, 
Set 1 end of clamping pieces on each side project up so that top strip may be nailed clinching against projecting ends. Let bottom strip come within
1/4 inch of the bottom of hive. Those dividers may be made as warm by [illegible] etc. as
Desirable. (25th) To get side frames 1/2 inch lower without movable bottom board. 
Let [illegible] sides of hive. This leads frames in front apartment 1/2 inch lower 
 (1, 1) May be nailed on, or [illegible] cut out, a small triangle 
Help bees to get over corner. 
The strip laid on bottom will keep bees in [illegible], a small triangle will keep them in above. 
October 4th Allys hive. Easily adapted to side frames. Let boxes be put in
Corners, with 1 3/4 inch holes for bees to enter behind frames. Top boxes maybe secured 
Two sides and an edge of top boxes thin strips fastened to receive side frames, 
The movable sides being taken out, this economizes all the space, or the corners
Might be arranged 4 small frames, or slots. (5th) New frame. Needs only two
Nails at each corner, no clinching, uprights and bottom only 1/8 inch thick,
And the whole frame admirably stiff, at least more than 110th more 
Space gained, by new style, so that 2 frames will hold more than 11 of oldstyle. 
Use no back ventilator. Make entrance one inch high use corner blocks
In front to get 2 frames there. Use none back, the spare room gives 
Please to put one frame hanging from front to rear 1/2 inch lower than the other frames 
In back apartment. The frames in back apartment 4 surplus in small 
Frames set in larger ones, or for emptying, away from entrance, and where bees 
Will feel more inclined to put surplus. Top cover roof and all together, like alleys [illegible]
[illegible] A shallow addition will give room for boxes all over surface, if ever required, but my
Plan is to discard boxes and get in small frames, or by emptying. Small slats one inch wide 1/8 inch 
Thick will assure to confine bees win first hived. Movable honey movable bottom board with [illegible]
Removed from front, sword corncob might lay just [crossed out: illegible] So as to let bees up near uprights as
Front apartment easily made warm, divide 2 shut off back apartment, central apartment has warm
